I've recently moved into this older house with it's exterior renovated and updated.
The interior walls are made of plaster or something harder, with a metal wire lath that it's attached to, and then common studded wall pillars behind it. I see posts talking about how this was common for bathrooms, but this is throughout the ENTIRE house.
My mission right now is to update some of the electric boxes and outlets, and to do that I'd have to cut out the old ones from the walls and then place new ones in.
So my question is, what ways/tools would work to cut into these walls cleanly, and then possibly reshape it to how it looked before?
